Installation of Mounting Brackets

NOTICE

Before installing the supplied counter top mounting brackets, decide 

which method of securing the dishwasher into its enclosure will be 

used. Once the mounting brackets are installed on the dishwasher, 

removing them is difficult and will damage the mounting brackets 

and the dishwasher.

If you have a Fully Integrated Panel, do not attach mounting brackets 

until after attaching the panel to the door.

If insulation is covering

 the area in 12a, fold it back.

 

Orient the mounting brackets (D)

 as shown. 

Please note the position-

ing of the bracket in illustration 12b.

 

Using pliers, bend down 

as shown in 12c such that the bracket will not 

slip out of slot in frame. 

Do not attach to cabinet yet.

Top Mount is used for counter tops made of wood or other materials 

that can be easily drilled. If you have solid surface, marble, granite, 

or other very hard countertops, skip to step 13 now.

WARNING

Avoid Tip Over Hazard

Do not use the dishwasher until it is completely installed. When 

opening the door on an uninstalled dishwasher, carefully open the 

door while supporting the rear of the unit. Failure to follow this 

warning can result in serious injury.
